Art to Stitch



...and this is why I haven't been posting paintings lately.  The art to fabric project I've been working on has kept me busy especially as Christmas approached.  Taking sketches of local places (beautiful Hudson on the Lake of Two Mountains), I created a "toile" design for fabric and have been happily sewing these into pillows.  The second image is of some teacups and florals
inspired by a favorite tearoom/florist here in town (Mademoiselle Clifford).
The design was adjusted here to reflect the favorite colors of two little misses by the names of Madeleine and Lily who are in to fuschia and purple and Alice in Wonderland.  I have so many ideas for the new year using these fabrics!
